Win Z.O.M.B.I.E. Toys From October Toys!

I've raved about October Toys and their Z.O.M.B.I.E. toy line several times. I even named them as my number three pick of my top five favorite zombie toys. Why? Head over to Zombie Command and read for yourself.

Well, great news! George, Ayleen, and Matt from October Toys have been kind enough to sponsor July's contest!

Grand prize is a Z.O.M.B.I.E. Horde package! Each Horde contains 13 randomly packed Z.O.M.B.I.E. figures in multiple colors (green, blue, white, glow in the dark) including School Girl, Rockabilly, Bathtime, School Boy, and the Ape!

Four runners-up will also be chosen with each receiving one full set of Z.O.M.B.I.E. figures!

Want more? Each winner will also receive a set of Z.O.M.B.I.E. Art Cards, stickers, and I'll even throw in some Zombies & Toys swag! Series 1 Z.O.M.B.I.E. Art Cards include nine cards, each designed by a different artist and inspired by Series 1 Z.O.M.B.I.E.s. Artists include M, Ego, Louie Lanford, Robotboy from Triclops Studio, Dinosauria, Apeman from Triclops Studio, Neil Winn, James Demetra, and Tone Rodriguez.

The folks that make the Z.O.M.B.I.E. figures at October Toys also produce and host a weekly toy show called Toy Break at http://www.toybreak.com. Not only is it an informative, addicting, and entertaining show; it's your key to entering this month's contest. To enter for your chance to win some Z.O.M.B.I.E. toys, email me with "zombie" in the subject at zombiesandtoys@gmail.com with your name, address, and the answer to this question: What is the name of episode 71 of the show? I'll give you a hint on how to find the answer, click here, view the archives, and scroll down until you find episode 71.

The contest is limited to one entry per person. However, like other contests, there will be exclusive opportunities to FaceBook fans and Twitter followers for bonus entries.

Facebook is constantly tryingto figure out some way to usepeople's personal info for financial gain. Every timethey misstep people bark andFacebook gets back in lineand tries something else later.

Facebook encourages people to upload photos, but when you try to share them with others outsideof Facebook access to see them is blocked for anyone not signedup with facebook.

========================

For me Twitter is just anotherburden of following people/groupsthat I'm already following indifferent ways (blogs, e-mailnewsletters, online forums, YouTube videos, etc.) Why do Ineed/want to follow someonethrough Twitter when I'm already following them by reading theirblog? their e-mail newsletter, etc.?

Time's running out! Don't forget that fans and followers get special chances for bonus entries!

I get your point, krakit. I take them both at face value and just try to have fun. They both help me, personally, to keep up to date with people, companies, and events with much ease. Twitter especially. It kinda acts as a reminder to let me know when something new is up somewhere.
